Sometimes I feel bad for wasting so much time on the internet looking through sites like Reddit or Imgur but there's very few days I don't learn something interesting.

Re: Gaming Thoughts Of The Day 2.0

I just found out the official development kit for the original Playstation was leaked online a few years ago. I remember desperately wanting a Net Yaroze (a kind of watered down development kit) back in the day but the massive price tag made it totally unobtainable.

I know now that I wouldn't have been able to make anything because I'm not artistic and don't know how to program anything but the idea of creating a Playstation era type of game still seems really awesome.

"The stories of addicts in the Hunts Point neighborhood, the poorest in all of New York City. I post people's stories as they tell them to me.

What I am hoping to do, by allowing my subjects to share their dreams and burdens with the viewer and by photographing them with respect, is to show that everyone, regardless of their station in life, is as valid as anyone else.

Its easy to ignore others. By not looking, by not talking to them, we can fall into constructing our own narrative that affirms our limited world view."

Saw some of the pictures on Imgur today and looked out the gallery, it's really sad but interesting and definitely worth checking out.

Re: Are you an alpha male?

People aren't just copy/pasted sheep that a lot of people on the internet typecast them as (see the irony btw?)
This definitely, this has always puzzled me. I lurk a lot of communities and it's an opinion that I've seen thrown out on a regular basis. Aside from an actual common interest or point of view, conformity, to some degree is part of a normal social skill-set and I've never particularly cared for those unable to accept it.

Brian Banks Signs With NFL After Being Cleared of Rape

http://i.imgur.com/prfdzSj.jpg

⋅  CBS News.
⋅  CNN.
⋅  ESPN.
This was on my feed this morning and while I don't know anything about American football I'm troubled by the false rape allegation and the apparent lack of consequences for the person responsible.

I can't find a respectable source covering this side of the story the following is from the UK Daily Mail in 2012, you have been warned.

Banks was exonerated last week after his accuser, Wanetta Gibson, admitted she had made up the whole story of sexual assault ten years ago and had been reluctant to come forward because of a large settlement she received from the school district.

The Los Angeles Times has reported that Gibson also had been worried it would affect her relationship with her two children, now aged four and five.

Banks' exoneration came after Gibson sent him a friend request on Facebook when he left prison in February of 2011 with a tag. In a message, she explained she wanted to 'let bygones be bygones'.

Banks's lawyer, Justin Brooks, told KPCC that Gibson and Banks met and she was caught on video saying there there had been no kidnap and no rape, and would help him clear his record.

Yet she refused to repeat the story to prosecutors as she feared she would have to return a $1.5million payment she won after her mother brought a suit against Long Beach Schools.

She was quoted as telling Banks: 'I will go through with helping you but it's like at the same time all that money they gave us, I mean gave me, I don't want to have to pay it back.'

The 26-year-old has said he does not plan to pursue legal action against his accuser, and Los Angeles prosecutors have said it is unlikely Gibson will be charged with making false accusations, saying it would be a tough case to prove.

Banks was jailed after Gibson accused him of rape in 2002, when he was just 16 and being heavily recruited by a number of colleges, including USC, which had offered him a full scholarship.

He was on the way to the school office to talk about his college applications when he bumped into Gibson, a fellow student, and they went to a stairwell to make out, Brooks told KPCC. He pointed out that they did not have intercourse.

He explained that Banks said something to upset Gibson and they parted on bad terms. She later accused him of kidnapping her, dragging her across the school and raping her in the stairwell.

Investigators tested her but found no physical evidence of rape, Brooks said. Banks maintained they had not had sex and all sexual contact had been consensual.

Yet his then lawyer encouraged the promising student to plead no contest to the kidnap and rape charges, warning Banks he could get 41 years to life in prison if convicted.

Expecting he would serve just 18 months instead, he followed the advice and pleaded no contest. He was in prison for six years.

While there, his case was taken on by Brooks, a lawyer who head the California Innocence Project.

'Brian’s story is so compelling, and his case for innocence so clear, we knew we had to take this on,' said Justin Brooks. 'Brian lost a huge part of his life when he was unjustly sent to prison.'
It seems like for one reason or another no action can be taken against Gibson but what do you guys think? Should she be in jail? Should anyone who makes that kind of false accusation face a prison sentence? Or do you believe that this would make it tougher for legitimate cases to be taken seriously?

Re: What movie are you watching right now?

Gross Pointe Blank.
Still one of my favorites.
Like top five, easily. One of the most re-watchable movies I've ever had the pleasure of watching in excess of fifteen times. Seriously, I'm still shocked to this day that it doesn't have more of a cult fanbase than it does.
The damn thing is just as quotable as any of Tarantino's best, and the story is easy to follow but filled to the brim with subtle backstory references and new things to notice with repeated viewings.
I'm generally apprehensive to label anything as the "best" in any way, shape, or form, but fuck it: in my eyes, this is easily one of the best movies of the 90s.

One of my favorite scenes in the entire history of film (the uploader cut it a little short, but oh well):

One of my favourite fight scenes of any movie, it's well choreographed, stylised but not over the top and has an absolutely banging soundtrack.

Finally re-bought Persona 2: Eternal Punishment. Would have been nice if the PSP remake would have been localized, but oh well. This'll have to do.
The Us and Japanese versions of Gungriffon were the first games I got for my new Saturn. Then I bought Virtual-On.
And I just had to snatch up a copy of Legend of Oasis as quickly as I could. Even though I haven't beaten it, I absolutely love Beyond Oasis for the Genesis, so the sequel/prequel to that was one of the top priorities on my list of Saturn games I need to get. Probably play both of those back-to-back as soon as I'm done with my current RPG exploit.

Re: What TV series are you watching?

I bought a load of DVDs off Amazon, seasons 1-5 of The Wire was one purchase, since I like most things HBO, especially The Sopranos, which is probably my favourite "show" ever. People who love The Sopranos are often saying that The Wire is even better
I didn't want to be one of those people jumping on The Wire critical acclaim bandwagon but it really is a fantastic series, it's definitely up there with The Sopranos. It has a lower budget but it has an even more expansive story.
